I don't think it's an overstatement to say that Succession is one of the best — if not the best — shows on television right now. Which made the two-year wait for season 3 that much more difficult for fans to endure. Fortunately, it turned out to be worth it.

Why we needed this fandom this year
Succession's newest season has the Roys against the ropes and willing to sacrifice — or, more accurately, demolish — any person or thing standing in their way, even if most of the characters are their own worst enemies. With its smart storylines, keen ability to tap into our own worst instincts, and deftness at creating some of the most unlikeable characters the small screen has ever seen, Succession has somehow managed to become the perfect antidote to the just-as-contentious real world.
What we’ll remember about this fandom a decade from now
While Brian Cox has gone on the record saying that they probably won't make more than two more seasons, we can only hope that some HBO exec is already pitching a spin-off for Tom and Greg. Here's hoping we're still watching the hijinx of Tom and Greg in 2031.
